Molecular characterization of extended spectrum beta-lactamases produced by Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical strains from a Tunisian Hospital.

Medecine et maladies infectieuses - 1 Apr 2015

Alibi S, Ferjani A, Boukadida J

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Extended-spectrum β-lactamases are widespread in hospital settings worldwide. The prevalence of ESBL producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL-KP) strains isolated from patients has recently increased in Tunisia. We conducted this study to determine the prevalence and the genetic characterization of ESBL-KP in a Tunisian Hospital. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We performed antibiotic susceptibility testing,...
